I'm using perl 5.004.04-6 and sysklogd 1.3-28. The perl Sys::Syslog module
used to work, and no longer does - I think it may have been the sysklogd
upgrade that broke it. This command should generate a message in the logs
and doesn't:
perl -e 'use Sys::Syslog; \
openlog("test","pid","daemon"); \
syslog("notice","testing")'
